Sungei Punggol
The Sungei Punggol River is located in Singapore's North-East Region. Apart from Punggol New Town, the river passes through seven additional settlements. Much of the riverbank along Sungei Punggol has now been reclaimed, and the river has been canalised.
It has been a component of the Punggol Reservoir since 2011. Kampong Tongkang Pecah was also located along Sungei Punggol. A network of green links has been developed along the banks of Sungei Punggol to better serve the recreational requirements of residents of Sengkang New Town. These connections connect the new town's housing precincts to neighborhood parks, the town park, and the Sengkang Sports Centre.
These park connections also connect to Punggol New Town's Coney Island Park and Hougang's existing Punggol Park. In the Sengkang section of the river, an artificial man-made floating island has been built in the middle of the river. The Sungei Punggol is bordered by the Sengkang Riverside Park, which opened in November 2008. Sungei Punggol's estuary was also dammed to build a reservoir in 2011, together with Sungei Serangoon.
